Ally Medeiros's bio

Ally Medeiros is a second-year PR and Strategic Communications student at Durham College. When she’s not in classes or working on assignments, Ally is a supervisor at Starbucks (so you know she knows lattes!) and, until recently, wrote and performed in a monthly comedy show called Good News Toronto.

Other than that, in her off-time, this avid reader can be found enjoying family dinners or visiting her boyfriend in Toronto, where they’re catching live comedy shows or cooking delicious meals. Fun fact: Ally and her boyfriend perform stand-up, sketch and improv comedy, so they’re always out watching their friends or being on stage.

As for her go-to caffeinated beverage? She’s got a few (but can you blame her?):

  • Vanilla iced coffee with milk
  • Iced strawberry matcha tea
  • London Fog
  • Hot orange pekoe with a splash of milk
